An ex-con was found dead inside his Arthur Avenue apartment with his body wrapped in plastic and blankets late Monday night.

A Bronx resident called police around 9:40 p.m. on Monday to report a foul smell coming from a nearby apartment, the New York Daily News stated. Inside, authorities found the decomposing body of Sidney Harris.

Harris, who had been arrested 11 times on a variety of charges including statutory rape, drug possession and robbery, was sentenced to 15 months in prison in 2008 after a conviction on grand larceny and welfare fraud charges, the Daily News added.
